Road traffic accident (RTA) frequently involves multi-level society and this has become a demanding community issue where more serious participation is needed to improve driver’s attitude in the future. RTA has a significant impact on quality of life and financial burden to the government and Malaysian society. Currently, there is limited local evidence supporting the elements of driver’s attitudes. This concept paper will discuss a potential method to be used in developing valid and sensitive driver’s evaluation. This evaluation may help the government of Malaysia to produce better road users in the future Keywords: road society, driver’s attitude assessment. eISSN 2514-7528 © 2018. The Authors.

The themes that emerged shows that majority of the respondent agreed that to maintain driver’s competency, there is a need to re-assess, and all qualified drivers and high-risk drivers may need to attend driving rehabilitation program in the future. The data was translated into a proposed model called PreSiM. This study concluded that human components have a high potential to be re-evaluated in the current licensing process.

The purpose of this study is to identify the correlation between the driver's attitude and internet addiction level by using Attitude towards Safe Driving Scale (ASDS-46) and Internet Addiction Test (IAT). The result showed that ASDS-46 and IAT have a high level of reliability of Cronbach's Alpha value 0.910 and 0.917 respectively. Domain 1, 2 and 4 (self-compliant, self-confidence and self-concern) show a negative correlation with the value of (P=.000 and -.225), (P=.019 and -.111) & (P=.044 and -.095) respectively. This study concludes that a driver who has a high internet addiction level has a risky behaviour to commit road traffic offences.

Driving is a complex process which involves eye-hand-foot coordination. Failure to coordinate will contribute to road traffic accidents (RTA). Young drivers usually represent the highest number of individuals involved in the accident cases. Thus, three common ergonomics principle were examined in this study: human-machine-environment. Issues such as land use, vehicle design and the importance of law enforcement are briefly discussed. Further research is needed to improve driver’s behavior and responses while driving. Strict enforcement on legislation and early education on road safety are required. It is also suggested that developing country should refer to the preventive model used in developed countries for reference. Keywords: Accident, Design, Road users eISSN 2514-751X © 2017 The Authors.
